MATERIALS

The products illustrated in this catalog can be made of cast stone, GFRC or Glascrete™.

Cast Stone/Precast Concrete

is a mixture of cement, aggregates and mineral colors and is reinforced with steel.

1. Cement shall be Portland Cement conforming to AST C-150 Types, l, ll or lll.

2. Integral color shall be pure mineral oxide, limeproof and nonfading.

3. Aggregates for concrete shall conform to the ASTM C-33 with a maximum size of 3/4 inch.

4. Reinforcing steel shall conform to ASTM 615 and deformations shall conform to ASTM M-305.

5. Quality; Minimum strength of 5,000 psi at age 28 days, as determined by tests of 6-inch and 12-inch cylinders. Absorption shall not exceed 5 percent.

GFRC

is a lightweight cast stone where cement, fine aggregates and glass fibers are combined to provide the traditional cast stone look with about 1/3 the weight.

Glascrete™

is a simulated cast stone where polyester resin, fine aggregates and glass fibers are combined to provide the cast stone look with about 1/5 the weight.

Glascrete™ has high impact resistance, and damage due to impact is usually confined to the area of impact without propagation of cracks. Compressive strength exceeds that of cast stone.

Cast stone can be used for most projects. Glascrete™ is recommended when weight and / or access are factors.

Composite

Is a high quality composite corrosive corrosive resistance laminate incorporating Arostech 12570A with a comprehensive strength, ASTM D790, of 29,000 psi.

COATING SURFACES

Surfaces are cast against appropriate mold materials to achieve desired finishes.

Color selection can be made from either Scofield or Davis color charts, or from the colors shown. Applied or Glaze finishes are available at an up charge.

SEALERS

All planters without drain holes are automatically sealed on the inside with a black or gray elastomeric membrane unless otherwise specified. Anti-graffiti, semi gloss or gloss (Glaze) sealers are available at an upcharge. These sealers meet the moisture retention requirements ASTM C-309 when tested in accordance with ASTM C-156 and all federal and state solvent emissions standards including California Air Regulation Board requirements.
